Cultivation: But Not a Game-Chapter 191 - 102: Nameless Sword Dao Maxed, Sword Light Division
After Su Yu finished counting the loot, he hesitated for a moment and then returned to the Godwood Ark.
However, he didn’t sell all the loot to the Vast Sea Association, only a small portion, mainly because it was hard to explain why he had so much loot, especially those few large skeletons over five hundred meters long.
Su Yu strolled on the deck, occasionally hearing people discussing the recent battle, especially mentioning the mythical template true dragon the most.
No wonder they were shocked, the mythical template is indeed very rare.
In the myths, the template itself is extremely rare. The Xuanzhen Immortal Sect has six main veins and over twenty branches, and Earth Immortal experts are probably dozens, with less than ten possessing mythical templates, a mythical template that he had never seen.
Even the Immortal Sects, filled with experts, have never seen a mythical template, let alone players outside, who are surely astonished.
Su Yu walked by, listening to their various speculations, feeling secretly pleased.
In the next few days, the Poison Dragon Battleship remained in this water area, and Su Yu dived into the water every day to level up by killing sea snakes, with no one watching, refreshing quite happily.
Then, each day he sold some, gradually selling off the miscellaneous items among the collected loot, including those few massive skeletons over five hundred meters.
The skeletons over 500 meters were priced at 200 gold each, three were 600 gold.
There were over thirty dragon bones ranging from 100 meters to 500 meters, priced between 10 gold to 80 gold, totaling 860 gold in all.
All the other miscellaneous fish bones, scales, inner cores, flying swords, magical treasures below the fifth rank, etc., collectively sold for 726 gold.
The total income amounted to 2186 gold.
In addition, there remained the Divine Bird Demon Elixir, Divine Bird Demon Soul, thousands of ordinary golden feathers, and one hundred and twenty true feathers, with a total estimated value of over five thousand gold.
Time passed, and unknowingly, after seven days, the Vast Sea Gang had collected enough skeletons and announced the return voyage.
Su Yu and Sun Feng became friends and agreed to hang out when they returned to Feixing Island, then bid farewell and continued flying east.
Alone, drifting on the sea, fighting monsters while enjoying the vast sea’s scenery.
Half a month later, Su Yu finally accumulated enough cultivation, and without delay opened the panel.
It was worth mentioning that when he transformed into a dragon and instantly killed an offshore Divine Bird, using a big move to kill so many sea snakes, he should have gained massive cultivation points and cultivation, and he actually did, but it all automatically increased the level of the true dragon incarnation, which was now at level 202.
"Nameless Sword Dao!" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
Glancing at the experience pool where over a billion cultivation points and 1135 points of cultivation had accumulated, Su Yu unhesitatingly consumed 970 million cultivation points and 1000 points of cultivation to raise the Nameless Sword Dao to the full 100 layers.
At the moment when the Nameless Sword Dao was maxed out, a spark of spiritual light flashed in Su Yu’s mind, and he suddenly had an epiphany.
"Tip: You have raised the Nameless Sword Dao to the hundredth level, breaking the pinnacle of this Sword Dao and reverting to its true form—Geng Metal Sword Fiend!"
"Hundred-layer Geng Metal Sword Fiend: Increases sword Qi damage by +2000 points, sword Qi sharpness by +2000, with a certain chance to cut off flying swords below the sixth tier or cause certain damage to magical treasures below the sixth tier, attached skill: Thousand-Layered Sword Net."
"Thousand-Layered Sword Net: Consumes a vast amount of mana to condense up to a thousand strands of sword Qi into a net, each sword Qi consuming 20 points of mana."
In addition, at the moment when the Nameless Sword Dao was perfected and reverted to its true form, a spark of spiritual light flashed in Su Yu’s mind, and the third realm of the Sword Dao, which had been elusive and unattainable, [Sword Light Division], seemed to be dispelled in an instant, imprinted in his mind.
Swordsmanship Realm - Sword Light Division: Can split sword Qi to injure the enemy.
Initial Entry: 5 strands of sword Qi, sword Qi power +10%.
Su Yu closed the panel, pointed with his hand, and Thunderbolt broke through the air into the sea, his mind moved, the dual swords trembled, each splitting into five strands of Taibai Sword Qi to slash down.
With the swordsmanship realm bonus, each strand of sword Qi had 50% of the maximum attack power.
The key was that the sword Qi split by Sword Light Division was not a skill, as long as there was enough mana, it could be endlessly divided.
Normally, a sword cultivator can only slash out one sword Qi at a time, while he could slash out five sword Qis with one sword, and ten with dual swords.
As the swordsmanship realm improved, the number of sword Qis split each time would be greatly increased, ten, fifty, a hundred; if it could reach the level of Extraordinary to Saint, even slashing out ten thousand sword Qis with one sword was not a dream.
"Not bad!"
Su Yu was very satisfied as he sheathed his sword, standing firm, and his strength grew once again.
In the following days, he continued to fight and level up, then practiced swordsmanship, integrating the ability of Sword Light Division into his existing combat system.
"Swish!"
The dual swords aimed at a deep-sea giant fish and slashed down, consuming two hundred additional mana to split out ten sword Qis, slashed together, instantly increasing the damage several times.
He manipulated the sword with intent and moved back and forth, with the dual swords slicing the deep-sea giant fish back and forth, occasionally a sword Qi bursting out and piercing into the deep-sea giant fish, causing greater damage.
As the swordsmanship became more proficient, each attack could achieve ten sword Qis accompanying, although the mana consumption increased by several times, the killing efficiency indeed increased several times.
This might be a bit high in mana consumption for other ordinary sword cultivators, but for Su Yu, who had over seventy thousand mana, this was simply not an issue.
With increased power and improved farming efficiency, the speed of experience accumulation also increased.
The massive experience accumulation you could see each day, and the mood was nothing but great.
Unknowingly, over two more months passed, and Su Yu finally crossed hundreds of thousands of kilometers of ocean, arriving near Jinjiao Island as marked on the map.
Emerging from the sea, he gazed from afar at the vast ocean’s island, silent for a long time.
Separated for over a decade, he was finally going to see his second brother, feeling a bit nervous.
Jinjiao Island, a large island with a territory spanning tens of thousands of kilometers, with many mountain ranges, Mingsu Palace stands on a large Spirit Vein in the center of the island.
Master Mingsu established an academy here and has the qualification to accept disciples, attracting a large number of players to gather here.
The number of people is far less than that of Feixing Island but much more than the Thousand Feather Association.
Su Yu first visited Jinjiao City on the west side of Jinjiao Island. The city is huge, divided into two parts, one part is a commercial area where normal players are active, the other part is separated by a city wall, seemingly belonging to some guild.
After entering the city, Su Yu first sold the miscellaneous items he had collected over the past two months while leveling up, then headed to the Mingsu Palace at the center of the island.
Mingsu Palace was located at the spiritual energy convergence point at the center of the island. From afar, one could see the giant peak standing tall at the island’s center, shrouded in spiritual mist. Pavilions and towers appeared faintly, like a celestial realm, with Mingsu Peak surrounded by two circles of mountains, and a large formation covering the entire Mingsu Palace.
Su Yu stopped in front of the Mingsu Palace’s gate, looking up at the people who were entering and exiting from time to time.
A sizable crowd had gathered on the expansive square. Some appeared to be merchants awaiting transactions, others seemed to be waiting for an audience inside, and many were kneeling devoutly before a stone wall outside the gate.
Curious, Su Yu couldn’t resist asking a fellow player who was idly waiting:
"Hey there, what are those people kneeling outside doing? Are they seeking apprenticeship?"
The person glanced at him and asked with a smile:
"You’re from outside, aren’t you?"
"Yes, this is my first time here."
"I thought so. Those people are seeking apprenticeship."
Su Yu was surprised:
"Aren’t apprenticeships only open once a year during a set period? What’s the point of kneeling here now?"
The person looked at Su Yu with a curious gaze and asked:
"Are you from the mainland?"
"Uh, yes."
"No wonder. It’s different overseas. Besides the big sects opening their gates annually, smaller sects or loose immortals recruit year-round whenever fate aligns."
"I see...."
"It’s said that the Palace Master of Mingsu Palace was once a branch of the Xuanzhen Immortal Sect from the mainland. The cultivation skills inside are very advanced. If you join, becoming a loose immortal might be too lofty, but becoming a skilled practitioner isn’t an issue."
"By the way, brother, you’ve come all the way from inland. Are you intending to seek apprenticeship?"
Su Yu waved his hand with a smile:
"No, I’m here to visit relatives."
"Visit relatives?"
The man became obviously interested and asked:
"Does your relative belong to Mingsu Palace?"
"Yes, they do."
The man’s eyes lit up, and his tone became enthusiastic:
"You’re in luck, brother! Mind telling which real person is your relative? I’ve been around for decades and know all the disciples and renowned students of the Palace Master."
"Well...."
Jiang Chuan quickly realized he was being overly enthusiastic and clasped his hands in apology:
"I was too forward, my apologies."
Su Yu waved it off with a smile and said:
"No problem."
"Excuse me, I should ask around first."
"No worries, go ahead and ask. If you don’t get an answer, come find me. I’m Jiang Chuan, a small trader. If I’m not here, I’m usually in Jinjiao City."
"Got it."
Bidding farewell to the rather enthusiastic Jiang Chuan, Su Yu went to the Mingsu Palace gate. The two men in specially tailored Daoist robes standing guard noticed him. One of them tapped the words on the stone tablet beside him before Su Yu could speak and said:
"If you wish to seek apprenticeship, fill out a form according to the standard above and submit it. Then go back and wait. Every month, successful applicants will be listed on the stone wall."
"If you wish to visit a friend, register with your name tag first. You will receive a reply within three days at the latest."
"Hmm, I’m here to visit a friend."
He didn’t directly mention his second brother because, although his senior brother had found some information, he hadn’t met the person in real life. He wasn’t sure if it was indeed his second brother.
"Register your name and other details, whom you wish to visit."
The man speaking handed Su Yu a refined A4 sheet of paper.
Su Yu twitched the corner of his mouth and dutifully started filling it out.
After quickly completing the details, he handed it to the gatekeeper Daoist and turned to leave.
This operation of needing pre-registration to visit filled him with a sense of déjà vu; he found himself speechless since entering the realm....
But there wasn’t much to say, as each location had its customs. This wasn’t unusual.
After leaving Mingsu Palace, he headed straight back to Jinjiao City and found an inn to stay in while he waited for three days.
However, the efficiency of Mingsu Palace surprised him. That very night, as he was strolling through the city and returning to the inn, he saw a man in a brocade robe standing in front of his small courtyard.
The man turned to look at Su Yu, and Su Yu’s eyes immediately fell upon the man’s face.
The man had a handsome face, with a faint layer of spiritual light on his skin—a rare phenomenon observed after passing a celestial tribulation. Although the memory was somewhat hazy, the man bore a strong resemblance to himself, and an inexplicable sense of familiarity washed over him, allowing him to instantly confirm that this was indeed his second brother, Su Huan.
